X-Men Cinematic Universe - Timeline (Revised & Original)

Naw. The Logan connection was definitely intentional.

In regards to the "No new mutants born after 2004", I mean, as an estimate yeah. There would be 1% of leftovers in the next generation; possibly why the New Mutants were so special to begin with.
Also, very often are species declared extinct only for years later for them to pop up again and thus no longer extinct but still endangered.
Life finds a way but for the most part, Mutants are mostly gone in the generations after 2004 regardless.
 
A couple years ago I was toying with the X-Men continuity and discovered that you can experience the saga in lots of different manners :
  1. X-Men
  2. X-Men United
  3. X-Men : Last Stand
  4. X-Men : First Class
  5. The Wolverine
  6. X-Men : Days of Future Past
  7. X-Men : Apocalypse (sh*t movie, but great conclusion for the saga)
I skipped Wolverine Origins, Deadpool 1 & 2, Logan, Dark Phoenix, and New Mutants because they don't fit in.

X-Men '97 gave me the need to get another crack at the franchise but I didn't have a lot of time, so I came up with what I consider probably the best way for non-Marvel fans to have a shot at the X-Men saga :
  1. X-Men
  2. X-Men United
  3. Logan
This makes a perfect trilogy, with little to no inconsistencies, there are only some nods to the first X-Men film and some references to the Weapon X program which can be found in the second installment. What's left is a great three-parter with the thematic of found-family as its core

I like to think of the franchise as 3 sagas,

The Wolverine saga
Origins
X1
X2
X3
The Wolverine
Logan

Young Xavier saga
First Class
DoFP
Apocalypse
Dark Phoenix

Deadpool saga
Deadpool 1-3

Oh and then theres New Mutants which doesn't really fit into any of these
 
Anyone played the Origins Wolverine game? I think it's the best pre-Arkham superhero game, especially for a movie tie-in. I actually think it fits into canon much better than the film. I love the DoFP tease in the bookends too. Really cool stuff in there
Finally finished it, lot of fun but I wouldn't say it fits into canon any more than the movie does. I mean, theres no way mystique could've been on Team X. Nightcrawler isn't even born yet. It also has a different Bolliver Trask, I know the last stand does too but they never give you his first name so its easy enough to assume he was just someone different. The DoFP bookends were cool but also kinda pointless and completely unrelated to the game idk. I wonder if there was ever any plans to have something like that in the movie. Theres a lot of points in the story where you would have absolutely no idea whats going on unless you had seen the movie. They kinda skip over some important parts of the plot. Enjoyable game though
